Suicide Rates in Men

Featuring Dr. Dan Bilsker, PhD, Rpsych

Duration: 1 minute

When we talk about men's suicide, what many people don't realize is that men commit suicide at a rate four times that of women.

They are vastly more likely to commit suicide at all ages than are women. It's something that researchers have known about for a long time, but in fact there's been surprisingly little research to try and understand why men are so much more vulnerable to suicide.

They've learned to manage psychological distress or emotional suffering by ignoring it, or through increasing their use of alcohol. They're not likely to open up to friends or family members about their distress and what's going on, and they're not that likely to seek out professional help to deal more effectively.

If you have questions about men's suicide, contact a local mental health professional.
